Halion 3 Features:
New file browser with drag and drop support, favorites system,
sound categorization and database indexing. An impressive set
of powerful new sound management tools gives you a clear overview
over all your sound files. The intuitive sound categories system
lets you group related sounds, making it easy to find them quickly!
Dazzling new Insert and Send Effects section. Twenty-seven
quality effects encompass just about any effect requirement.
They can be applied to individual samples, sample groups or
entire programs. Effect sends can be sent to HALion's internal
FX section or even directly to the VST mixer to share plug-in
resources between the host and HALion.
HALion 3 now offers RAMSave, a new feature created to keep
in check the RAM resources needed by even the most extensive
sample instruments, resulting in low RAM usage and faster project
load and save times; a boon for pro users using large, intricate
sampled instruments such as big orchestral patches or large
drum kits.
Alternate mode -- adds a range of functions, including playing
a different sample with each new Note On message, introducing
more spontaneity and feeling, especially useful for realistic
drum-sounds or string bow up/down action.
Even more file formats -- HALion 3 adds support for Kurzweil
and Kontakt sounds as well as for the Zero-X BeatCreator and
BeatQuantizer Groove-Slice formats. You can find a 15 day limited
Demo version of ZeroX BeatQuantizer in the 3rd party Demo folder
on the DVD.
